Press Release / 7 March 2013 / 13GLE020

LNG Terminal operators launch a new transparency tool

  Gas LNG Europe (GLE) is proud to inform of the launch of the Aggregated LNG Storage Inventory (ALSI).

 It is a public platform making available aggregated operational data regarding the operation of the EU LNG terminals. ALSI includes daily information at country level covering all the LNG regasification capacity in operation in the EU.

 The online publication takes place 7 days a week at 6 pm CET presenting in particular the following data for EU with their splitting per country:

 1.       LNG Inventory existing at the end of the previous gas day:Aggregated amount of LNG in the LNG tanks, expressed in thousand cubic meter of LNG;

 2.       Daily Send-Out of the previous gas day:Aggregated gas flow out of the LNG facility, expressed in million cubic meter of Natural Gas

 ALSI proposes also several user friendly functionalities such as historical files and graphs that allow a quick overview of the past and present operational status of the EU LNG terminals. Historical datasets will be made available starting from 1 January 2012.

 It is available from GIE website: http://lngdataplatform.gie.eu

 GLE Members committed on a voluntarily basis to provide daily data of their terminals for the benefit of the markets participants. GLE will continuously improve and extend ALSI.

Lessons learnt from the February 2012 cold spell: LNG contribution to SoS

GLE Presentation to the Madrid Forum XXI: LNG Terminals Transparency Template, a new tool to facilitate the access to LNG terminal’s information – by Jacques Rottenberg, GLE Transparency WG Chairman

The use of LNG as a fuel for heavy trucks, rail and shipping offers an excellent opportunity for improving the environmental footprint and will be key in meeting the increasingly strict environmental requirements for the transport sector: trucking, rail and shipping.

Distribution of LNG from main EU import terminals to smaller regional and local terminals will improve security of supply and market functioning in the EU, as well as enable a cost-effective way of supplying natural gas where adequate network connections are not available.

Securing these opportunities will require a regulatory and fiscal framework that recognizes these benefits.

GLE is excited about the opportunities offered by Small Scale LNG and will play its part in promoting its further development.
